Is there any way to kill process via CMD or something, but without using 3rd party tools to do it??? I did investigate and couldn't find any way to do it via CMD, but maybe it can be done via VBScripts?? That is fine too... Basicly, any way will do, as long as I can write it manually(CMD, Bat, VBS..)
Anyone knows how?

With that batch file you still need to have pskill.exe and pslist.exe so the batch file standalone isn't any good.

And like Blasta said you can kill porcesses in WIndows XP with Taskkill.exe and list them with Tasklist.exe

I don't think it's not possible to kill processes in cmd without 3rd party tools on an OS prior to XP

five star nice bat file works good i couldnt understand the german thou so i translated it

@echo off
:choice
@echo .##########################
@echo .##########################
@echo 1 List ####################
@echo 2 Kill ####################

@echo off
set /p choice=

if %choice% == 1 goto List
if %choice% == 2 goto Kill

:List
@echo off
@echo all processes
set /p Liste=
pslist.exe %Liste%
pause
cls
goto choice


:Kill
@echo off
@echo Enter the process to be terminated
set /p Prozess=
pskill.exe %Prozess%
pause
cls
goto choice

emm dude did u even read what the person wrote he wants to do it via cmd line taskmgr.exe is a gui program not a console one

(*looks @ the date* few right date this time *)

i think what he means is this:


to get a list of processes you type in this:

net start

Then stop the service by doing:

net stop "service name"

I hope this helps...

[DumpZ]

By typing net start it lists the running services and i think that the TS want to kill a process

The .bat is nice, but it uses pslist and pskill....and he doesn't want that :[

I use pslist everyday because of ONE thing it has over the simple TLIST.exe : it shows the directory where the .exe is located ! Very nice to remove hackers, in fact. Not to add pslist list process that Tlist doesn't (ie rootkited process)

Fport + pslist => nice combo

there is no buildin program in windows that can list or kill process within cmdprompt.
However I once found vbscripts which do exactly what you need at microsofts knowledge center.
the scripts are rather big but work nicely!!
attached are 2 scripts one will list the PIDs
usage: cscript process.vbs
the other one will kill the process
usage: cscript kill.vbs PID

yes but taskkill is only present in windows xp as far as I know?
don't have it on my win2000 system.
Recording to Microsoft the vb scripts should work on any os starting from nt4.0 up to now (but who knows...)
